Increasing dark patches after blood donation

It’s been 6 days since I donated blood for the first time. These dark bruises appeared yesterday only, and they’re increasing in size. what is it?

Doesn’t look that bad, I bruise considerably when I have a normal blood test and not instantly either, it could be referred bruising from the donation or it could be nothings to do with it, are you uk

Yeah, that might be the case.
“are you uk”?

Cute dog btw. :wink:

He was but sadly he is no longer with us

Oh God! I’m sorry :sob:. Losing your pet is truly something very difficult to bear. I

It was and still hurts but he’s been gone 6 years and I ended up taking on 3 rescue dogs, lovely also in their own crazy way

We need people like you on this planet. Desperately.
Lovely heart <3

Thank you for the comments it’s made my day, I think we are so lucky to be able to have pets, I’m a massive believer in the reasoning that they actually help us to deal with the stresses of life in general including mental and physical illnesses
Can’t beat a good cuddle and a good belly laugh and they definitely make me do both

Can’t agree more. Even a slightest interaction with a doggo makes us go from 1 to 10 on the scale of happiness. No doubt they’re one of the best gifts given to us :heart_eyes::heart_eyes:

And Chocolate of course, don’t forget that :rofl::rofl:

How are you bruises today, bet they are either much worse or gone

They’re darker now. But didn’t spread that much though. Thanks for asking :two_hearts:

Uhh… Can we be friends? I’d love to know you better.

*I’d love to get to know you better
